I have a 6-8 month old sow just come in and obviousyl she is going to be gaining weight any way as she is still growing but she is gaining about 15grammes a day! Is this normal or do you think she could be pregnant too.

She was housed with a boar and had babies and he was still in with her at the time of delivery. She was also still with her 8-10 week old son so she could be but just wondering if this weight gain sounds like a good indicator or not?

Thanks in advance

Yeah there's a high chance she could be pregnant, just make sure she has access to plenty of food.

A vet may be able to gently feel the babies inside, but really it's just a wait and see situation
